Online Backup: How it Works
Backing up Data:
Standard Backup: Data
Vault's Online Backup Client is downloaded and installed on the computer(s)

Select
file for backup, at a
predetermined time your selected files are compressed
and encrypted using an encryption
key known only to you, then your encrypted files are transfers to Data
Vault's secure storage facility.
Large Initial Backups:

large initial backups, Data Vault's Copy to Disk feature performs onsite backups
using a portable hard drive. The drive is shipped to Data Vault
and uploaded on to the backup server.
Restoring Data:
Data Vault understands restoring your data is the reason you
trust us with your data. We provide multiple ways or levels of data
restoration.

from Data Vault data center or the Local Restore (optional).
-
The second is where
the data is restored web restore agent, and
-
the final method, for major disaster
recovery, where the restore data is physically delivered via a portable disk or
media to the customer’s site or alternative disaster recovery location.
Online Restore Method: Data can be restored to any system or storage device the
administrator can browse.
The primary method of
 data
restoration is online. The Restore Wizard that guides you through the process of
selecting and restoring data. The Restore Wizard allows you to search and select
files for restore, select the version of the files and choose the target
destination for delivery.
This level of restore is used in instances of
moderate data loss, typically single/small number of files on a small/medium
server.
